Q.
Name
4
plant
cell
structures
that
you
would
see
with
a
light
microscope.
Cell
wall,
nucleus,
mitochondria,
vacuole
Q.
Name
another
type
of
microscope.
Electron
microscope.
Q.
Using
a
light
microscope
you
observe
an
object
you
know
to
measure
0.06mm
in
length.
The
image
size
you
observe
is
9mm
long.
Calculate
the
magnification.
Magnification
=
Length
of
observed
Image
length
of
actual
specimen.
Magnification
=
9mm
0.06mm = 150 x magnification.
Q.
State
the
difference
between
the
way
light
microscopes
and
electron
microscopes
work.
Identify
which
is
most
powerful.
Light
microscopes
rely
on
refraction
of
light
to
magnify
images
whereas
electron
microscopes
rely
on
focused
beams
of
electrons.
Electrons
have
a
shorter
wavelength
than
light,
as
such
electron
microscopes
are
more
powerful.
Q.
The
Flagellum
of
the
bacterium
Escherichia
coli
is
0.001mm
long.
You
observe
the
flagellum
at
400
x
magnification.
Calculate
how
long
the
magnified
image
will
be.
Image
size
=
Actual
length
of
flagellum
x
Magnification.
Image
size
=
0.001mm
x
400
=
0.4mm
Q.
State
the
similarities
and
differences
between
plant
and
animal
cells.
Both
plant
and
animal
cells
have
a
cytoplasm,
cell
membrane,
nucleus,
mitochondria
and
ribosomes.
Additionally,
plants
have
a
cell
wall
composed
of
cellulose,
chloroplasts
and
a
large
permeant
vacuole.
Q.
State
the
functions
of:
-
a.
Cell
wall
maintains
cell
structure
and
support.
b.
Cell
membrane
regulates
the
movement
of
substances
into
and
out
of
the
cell.
Q.
Where
does
photosynthesis
take
place
in
a
plant
cell?
Photosynthesis
takes
place
in
the
chloroplasts
(in
the
green
parts
of
plants).
Q.
Describe
vacuoles
in
plant
cells.
The
vacuole
is
a
large
fluid
filled
sac
containing
salts
and
sugars
(sap).
Q.
Mitochondria
are
organelles
found
in
most
animal
and
plant
cells.
Mitochondria
are
the
sites
of
cellular
respiration.
a.
State
3
examples
of
a
specialised
cell
likely
to
have
many
mitochondria.
Sperm
cells,
Muscles
cells
and
liver
cells.
b.
Explain
your
answer.
These
specialised
cells
are
very
active
and
require
lots
of
energy.
As
such
they
have
many
mitochondria
to
provide
the
energy
(ATP)
generated
from
cellular
respiration.
Q.
Plant
and
animal
cells
have
similarities
and
differences.
Complete
each
statement

by
highlighting
the
correct
words.
a.
Plant

c.
Both
plant
and
animal
cells
/
only
animal
cells
/
only
plant
cells
have
cell

d.
The
cytoplasm
/
nucleus
is
the
gel
like
substance
within
the
cell,
where
most
chemical
reactions
take
place.
Q.
Highlight
the
cell
where
you
would
find
a
plasmid.
a.
Plant,
Animal,
Fungi
or
Bacteria.

from
chromosomal
DNA
in
the
cell
you
identified
above.
Plasmids
are
small
circular
pieces
of
DNA
separate
from
the
chromosomal
DNA
of
Bacteria.
Plasmids
are
able
to
replicate
independently
of
chromosomal
DNA.
